Voltaic Sphere

Embrace the storm and call forth the lightning to strike your foes.

Voltaic Sphere
4th level evocation
Casting Time: 1 Action
Range: 120 ft.
Components: Verbal, Somatic, Material (a brass key)
Duration: Instantaneous

A bolt of lightning strikes at a point you choose within range, and then bursts with an ionizing surge into a storm of electricity. Each creature in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on that point must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, a creature takes 7d8 lightning damage and cannot take reactions until the start of your next turn. On a success they take half as much damage, and suffer no other effects.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5rd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 4th.

Classes: Druid, Sorcerer, Wizard
